Damned if you do. . .
Well, SpartanWeb wasn't just happily mocking me. My GPA is, sadly, a 2.69 for the semester. It puts me in a precarious position.
Precalculus - BC (Yea, that's more normal huh, Phil?)
Organic Chemistry I (Lecture) - C
Organic Chemistry I (Lab) - B
Ecology - B
Ecology (lab) - N/A ("We don't care if you did well here, har har!")
I'm caught at an impasse. I really don't know how the professional students with scholarships do this. I mean, there's a limit to what they pay for and I'm still trying to figure out how the hell it works. I suppose I'll have to bitch to financial aide so it's crystal clear. Either they stop paying after a certain number of hours or when I get my bachelor's. Man, I really hope it's when I get my B.A. Because if it's credit hours. . ? Well, I sorta need a 4-credit bobo-class to boost the GPA. I have O-chem II in the Spring semester and Cell Bio in the morning. When I'm least functional. But if things are based on credit hours. . ? Well. . . I may not be able to take that GPA-boosting class.
The current GPA is a 3.11. If I get what I think I'll get next semester, I get a 2.953. . . which is still enough to take my scholarship.
Goddamn, I thought I wasn't supposed to have to think during my vacation. Fucking Bio major. I totally should have been an english major or something. Doc loved me enough that I maybe could have done it, even if I was never Kitty-calibur. I might have done art if I'd thought it'd feed me but I was never good enough for that either. Where do the jacks-of-all-trades go? Seriously. I get interested in way too many subjects for my own good. Science, art, writing, sociology, psych (I'd totally use my powers for evil though). . .
It's sad to have to question your existance just because you love learning so much. I've already settled to Bio and the idea of a Masters in Tropical Conservation Biology and Environmental Science make me sorta giddy (for the dorkiest reasons on the planet, I swear) but I have to get there. And I have to be acceptable to the university I want to go to. Which is proving to be a real issue right now. . .
I'm sure I'll find a way around it. Or just not end up there. . . USF will always love me -.-;
